A few general questions:

How have you tested this code? Has it been run on real hardware? What
were the results?

The code looks good and clean in general, minus a few places mentioned
below were I have questions and/or suggestions:

Why do you need the _safe variant here? You are not changing the list in
this loop so you should be fine with list_for_each_entry().

Other IOMMU drivers have a timeout for this loop and report an error
when the state does not change. I think this makes sense here too so
that the kernel will not just stop spinning in that loop if something
goes wrong but prints an error instead.

Why can you call into DMA-API here? A DMA-API implementation may call
back into this IOMMU driver, no? So this looks a little bit like a
layering violation.

This looks a bit too expensive to have in the map path. How about saving
something like an effective_output_mask (or output_size) which contains
the logical OR of every mask up the path? This would make this check a
lot cheaper.

Since this function does also unmapping, how about renaming it to
arm_smmu_handle_mapping(). The 'create' part in there is misleading.

Again, why do you use the _safe variant, you do not seem to change the
lists traversed here.
